Cyber Security of the Economy and Public Finances: Historiography and Post-War Trajectory of Development by Petrukha Nina M., Petrukha Serhii V., Zhmaiev Anatolii Yu., Synkevych Maksym E.

“…It was found that the emergence and strengthening of the role of artificial intelligence allows for a closer level of correlation between trends in the development of the economy and public finances by adding new data to predictive models, bringing them to the level of big data, identifying threats and risks in them for the development of adaptive anti-crisis-colored regulatory behavioral models for the State regulators, including in terms of creating formal and informal institutional rules for countering cyber threats. On the basis of this, practical recommendations on increasing the efficiency and productivity of the level of cyber security were formed, which correspond to the existing strategic document in this area – the Cyber Security Strategy of Ukraine, which stitches together niche strategic documents (such as the Plan for the Ukraine Facility, the Strategy for the Reform of the State Finance Management System for 2022–2025) by a single cyber defense system.…”

Influence of Test Protocol on Filtration Efficiency of Medical Face Mask Material by Aurélie Joubert, Ala Bouhanguel, Yves Andrès, Laurence Le Coq

“…Several polydisperse test aerosols were used - DEHS, alumina, HOLI, NaCl, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Emesvirus zinderi (MS2) - produced by liquid atomization and/or powder dispersion, and sized by optical and aerodynamic counters or cascade impactors. The results have shown that the particle size distribution and charges for a given type of aerosol can differ depending on the generator used, in particular the wet or dry nature of generation. …”

How to survive the mutational meltdown: lessons from plant RNA viruses by Lafforgue, Guillaume, Lefebvre, Marie, Michon, Thierry, Elena, Santiago F.

“…In this study, we aim to investigate the role of bottleneck size, the maximum population size between consecutive bottlenecks, and the generation of genetic diversity in countering the effects of Muller’s ratchet. We observed three distinct evolutionary outcomes for tobacco etch virus under three different demographic conditions: (i) a decline in fitness following periodic severe bottlenecks in Chenopodium quinoa, (ii) a consistent fitness level with moderate bottlenecks in C. quinoa, and (iii) a net increase in fitness when severe bottlenecks in C. quinoa were alternated with large population expansions in Nicotiana tabacum. …”

L’aqueduc du Gier : nouvelles données sur le pont-siphon de Beaunant à Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon (Métropole de Lyon) by David Baldassari, François Blondel, Stéphane Gaillot
